Love and hate
To start, this game has some very inappropriate ads for kids… even if you click the “15 and under”, (Still don’t see why that needs to pop up everyday..) The inappropriate ads are something that NEEDS to be fixed, especially on a game meant for kids. The ads brings down my rating by A LOT. (2) The other thing is that this game always shows as “offline”, which means my store doesn’t make sales. In the beginning everything was great, but time and time again it would say that the game couldn’t be connected to the internet. Mind you, my iPad only runs on WiFi and I use it everyday with no issue, only on this game does that problem persist. (3) Some of the goals and items needed to be bought in order to meet those goals costs way too much coins. I understand you need to work to meet those goals but some of the prices are too much, especially on things that aren’t even usable or nice. Same with items in store, I spent over 300,000 coins to redo the floor….. my boutique isn’t even that big lol Overall this game is fun but prices need to be adjusted to make this game a little more enjoyable and the ads need to be better suited for kids…
Reading other people’s reviews, I see we all mainly share common issues on this game. That knocked off another star off my rating since most of these comments are a couple years old.. meaning they see these comments and do not care to change or fix any of these problems. What a shame.

Change Request
#1 can we please get a button on shoppages where we can send a neighbor invite request simply by clicking a button instead of having to try to figure out what they’re storm ID is and send them a request that way sometimes I find a shop that I like but they don’t have their storm ID as their shop name so I can add them as a friend it’s frustrating
#2 can we please have a longer time before our outfits expire I have bought outfits that take hours or days to receive and then once that time comes I’m busy doing something else in my outfit that took days to receive expires in an hour unfair
#3 can we please get more updated outfits that take less time than an hour for example 1 minute 2 minutes 15 minutes 30 minutes 1 hour I love playing this game but not having many options that are less than an hour makes it impossible for me to play as much as I would like
with these changes I would play this game all the time and I would definitely spend more money on diamonds

Fun
This game is great if you dream of ever owning and designing your own boutique. There a few annoying aspects of this game such as to change the tiles or wall paper you need to click on every single one, which is just annoying and you need to buy them, you can’t see it without purchasing the tile. Other then that I like it. I’ve been playing this game for years and still going.. only one random add each time you open the app, which is also great. Definitely a great game.

FASHION STORY
USED TO BE A GREAT GAME UNTIL YOU QUIT GIVING A NEW OUTFIT EVERY TUESDAY. NO GOALS. NO NEW OUTFITS. NO WAY TO MAKE GEMS BECAUSE NO NEW OUTFITS. WHY???December 25/2018 STILL NOT ONE NEW OUTFIT. THE GAME IS DYING SAME AS FARM STORY. TERRIBLE WASTE OF A ONCE GREAT GAME

Not bad
Not a bad game but could use a few tweaks.
There is only one skippable advert when you open the ad, which is refreshing for a free game. You need to create an account with the developer in order to add neighbours, which you need to complete goals, receive gifts and earn tips/star ratings.
It is not in any way an in-depth game but something fun to pass your time if you’re into these games.
Tips to the developer:
1. I understand that it’s a women’s fashion game but the fact you cannot make yourself (the owner) a male is a tad sexist, men can own womens clothing stores too.
2. All of the fashions are lumped together (albeit segregated into 3 cruddy categories), it would be nice to sort by time/cost taken to produce or a search option for goal items.
3. Majority of the interesting or “cooler” decorations, all cost gems. The gems are grossly overpriced and are offered in strange amounts, the minimum being 9 (most gem items are at least 10). Being able to earn more free gems through goals would be nice, maybe through your shameless promoting of other Storm8 apps/games.

A little confused
So to start I absolutely love this game played it a lot when I was younger too but anyway first off I don’t get how people complain about the ads like I never have any only 1 like once a day honestly two when people say it’s hard to get gems I don’t think it’s too hard bc you can get them from buying enough of the same items completing tasks and you can get up to like 7 or so everyday for just watching an ad so plenty of ways to get gems and they obviously can’t make it to easy to get a bunch otherwise there no point in having the gems but my main issue is sometimes I won’t play for like say an hour when I log back on i will have the same amount of money I had when I left sometimes even LESS but my products will still be missing so like I just never got my money doesn’t happen to frequently but still a little annoying when I wanted a whole day for something then for half of them to be gone and me make no money out of it again doesn’t happen to much so I’m not too mad but just hope it’s something they can fix but I do recommend the game

Good but needs improvement.
Over the years, the game still hasn’t had many important updates. What frustrates me is that you can’t sell walls or floors; I wouldn’t mind it if you could have gained an actual preview of what it would look like without buying it - it’s blocked. If you can’t afford it, you can’t even click on it to see how it would look like. It’s frustrating that you have do it all one by one with no option of placing the same type of floor/wall (even if you can’t afford it) to at least SEE what it looks like to know if it’s worth spending your money it. The option is available when you’re designing your profile with clothes; wouldn’t it being the ideal option to have it with walls/floors. It’s a fun game to play, but it’s fascinating that these simple additions haven’t been added yet - whilst most games like this do.

It is a good game, however takes up almost all of your time
This is a good game, but has a few issues:
First of all, when you first start the game it’s hard to move from level to level due to a lack of money and diamonds, which tempts you to spend real money for the game.
Second of all, some products such as wallpapers, stalls, cash desks and changing rooms are expensive costing like a few diamonds which you haven’t got.
Lastly, the feedback section does not hold all the list of visitors of your shop to keep your track in case you’ve missed to visit someone back. It just gives you up to 10 visitors list, however sometimes you get more than 30 people visiting your shop, so it would be useful to extend that list.
I would recommend this game, however it takes up a lot time and effort, if you haven’t got money to spend.

It could be more versatile
This is a great game and you get to see other players “stores” however the game needs a better edge. I believe if you added a few simple elements Fashion Story would be a 5 stars for every player.
Ive come up with a small list of improvements that could be made.
{First is a friend request button. The game is lacking that simplicity. If you want to add someone as your friend the player has to manually type in their ID and sometime you have to go back and forth because of spelling.
{Second After selling merchandise a certain number of times the players should receive it as a gift to use on the players avatar as a new outfit item. The game gets boring and you loose interest making anyone want to stop playing after 5 minutes.
{Third is the amount of time it takes to receive merchandise. Shorten the time on the merchandise to under an hour for the majority of items would keep fingers moving and moving fingers means players being engaged.
{lastly just for fun it would be neat if your avatar was somehow incorporated in the “store” itself. Maybe sitting at the cash register or walking around to check on items)
